Trust in God
By Charles Harpur
Deep trust in God—for that I still have sought
Through all the grim doubts that bemock the soul,
When in the amazement of far-reaching thought,
We list the laborings that for ever roll
Like dubious thunders through those clouded regions
Where Night and Destiny the counsels keep
Of Time developing his shadowy legions:
And when I’ve stood upon some hazardous steep
Of speculation—heaving up its bare
And rugged ridge high in the nebulous air
Of endless Change, and thence tremendously
Throwing its shadow, like a blind man's stare,
Out through the dread Unknown—deep trust in Thee,
O God, hath likewise been my refuge there.
